Jack Sheppard

CHAPTER IX
12/13

"It's too late to carry 'em before a magistrate now, Sir Rowland; so, with your permission, I'll give 'em a night's lodging in Saint Giles's round-house.

To-morrow, I shall carry you before Justice Walters, who'll take your information; and I've no doubt but Thames Darrell will be fully committed.

Now, for the cage, my pretty canary-bird.

Before we start, I'll accommodate you with a pair of ruffles." And he proceeded to handcuff his captive.
"Hear me!" cried Thames, bursting into tears.
